What are these Lifestyle Pets? 

Ashera cats

The 'Hybrid Cat' is the latest fad for affluent pet-loving families in the United States, and elsewhere.

These hybrid cats are the largest and most exotic domestic cats in the world.

The Ashera cat is a giant house cat, weighing up to 30 pounds, and are a cross between the African Surval and the Asian Leopard. It should be noted that there have been some legal disputes as to the actual origin and genetic makeup of these and many other lifestyle pet hybrids.

As one may expect the price tag for such a rare animal is steep. Usually upwards of $20,000 US each, these domesticated cats are finding their way into homes in record numbers.
